Introduction
General Description
McQuay air-cooled water chillers are complete, self-contained automatic refrigerating units. Every unit is completely assembled, factory wired, charged, and tested. Each unit consists of air-cooled condensers, Copeland Compliant Scroll hermetic compressor, brazed plate-to­plate evaporator, and complete refrigerant piping. Liquid line components include sight­glass/moisture indicator, solenoid valve, and thermal expansion valve. Other features include a compressor heater, and evaporator heater for chilled water freeze protection.
The electrical control center includes all equipment protection and operating controls necessary for automatic operation. Condenser fan motors are three-phase (except single-phase on No. 1 fan with SpeedTrol option) and started by their own contactors and have inherent overload protection. Each compressor has solid-state motor protection for inherent thermal overload protection except Model AGZ 010 that has internal line breakage.

Inspection
Check all items carefully against the bill of lading. Inspect all units for damage upon arrival. Report shipping damage and file a claim with the carrier. Check the unit nameplate before unloading to be sure it agrees with the power supply available. Units are shipped FOB factory and McQuay is not responsible for physical damage after unit leaves the factory.
Note: Unit shipping and operating weights are listed on pages 16 and 17.
Installation
Note: Installation must be performed by trained, experienced personnel who are
familiar with local codes and regulations, especially concerning refrigerant release to the atmosphere.
!
WARNING
Sharp edges and coil surfaces can cause personal injury. Avoid contact with them.
Handling
Be careful to avoid rough handling of the unit. Do not push or pull the unit from anything other than the base. Block the pushing vehicle away from the unit to prevent damage to the sheet-metal cabinet and end frame (see Figure 1).
To lift the unit, lifting slots are provided in the base of the unit. Arrange spreader bars and cables to prevent damage to the condenser coils or cabinet (see Figure 2).

Location
Unit Placement
AGZ units are for outdoor applications and can be mounted on a roof or at ground level. Set units on a solid and level foundation. For roof-mounted applications, install the unit on a steel channel or I-beam frame to support the unit above the roof. For ground level applications, install the unit on a substantial base that will not settle. A one-piece concrete slab with footings extended below the frost line is recommended. Be sure the foundation is level (within 1/2” [13 mm] over its length and width). The foundation must support the operating weights listed in the Physical Data Tables on pages 16 and 17. It is recommended that the unit be raised a few inches with a suitable support, located at least under the mounting locations, to allow water to drain from under the unit and to facilitate cleaning under it.
Since its operation is affected by wind, the unit should be located so that its length is parallel with the prevailing wind. If this is not practical, use field fabricated wind deflectors.
Service Access
Each end of the unit must be accessible after installation for periodic service. Compressors, filter-driers, and liquid line solenoid valve are accessible from the end of the unit. High­pressure, low-pressure, and motor protector controls are on the compressor. Most operating, equipment protection, and starting controls are located in the unit control box.

Clearances
The flow of air to and from the condenser coil must not be limited. Restricting airflow or allowing air recirculation will result in a decrease in unit performance and efficiency. There must be no obstruction above the unit that would deflect discharge air downward where it could be recirculated back to the inlet of the condenser coil. The condenser fans are propeller type and will not operate with ductwork on the fan outlet.
Install the unit with enough side clearance for air entrance to the coil and for servicing. Provide service access to the evaporator, compressors, electrical control panel and piping components as shown in Figure 3. Do not block access to the unit with piping or conduit.
Do not allow debris to accumulate near the unit. Air movement may draw debris into the condenser coil causing air starvation. Give special consideration to low ambient operation where snow can accumulate. Keep condenser coils and fan discharge free of snow or other obstructions to permit adequate airflow.

Sound Isolation
The low sound levels of the AGZ chiller are suitable for most applications. When additional sound reduction is necessary, locate the unit away from sound sensitive areas. Avoid locations beneath windows or between structures where normal operating sounds may be objectionable. Reduce structurally transmitted sound by isolating water lines, electrical conduit and the unit itself. Use wall sleeves and rubber isolated piping hangers to reduce transmission of water or pump noise into occupied spaces. Use flexible electrical conduit to isolate sound through electrical conduit. Spring isolators are effective in reducing the low amplitude sound generated by the Discus semi-hermetic compressors and for unit isolation in sound-sensitive areas.

The minimum clearance to a side wall or building taller than the unit height is 6 feet (1828mm) provided no solid wall above 6 feet (1828mm) tall is closer than 12 feet (3658mm) to the opposite side of the unit.
IOMM AGZB1 AGZ 010B through 034B 5
Vibration Isolators
Vibration isolators are recommended for all roof-mounted installations or wherever vibration transmission is a consideration.
The unit should be initially placed on shims or blocks at the listed free height. When all piping, wiring, flushing, charging, etc. is completed, the springs are adjusted upward to loosen the blocks or shims that are then removed.
A rubber anti-skid pad is part of the isolator. Installation of spring isolators requires flexible piping connections and at least three feet of flexible conduit to avoid straining the piping and transmitting vibration and noise. These units cannot be bolted to isolators.

Chilled Water System
Water Piping
Local authorities can supply the installer with the proper building and safety codes required for proper installation.
Install piping with minimum bends and changes in elevation to minimize pressure drop. Consider the following when installing water piping:
1. Vibration eliminators to reduce vibration and noise transmission to the building.
2. Shutoff valves to isolate the unit from the piping system during unit servicing.
3. Manual or automatic air vent valves at the high points of the system. Install drains at
the lowest points in the system.
4. Maintaining adequate system water pressure (expansion tank or regulating valve).
5. Temperature and pressure indicators located at the unit to aid in unit servicing.
Pressure gauge taps must be installed in the chilled water inlet and outlet piping or as shown in Figure 4.
6. A strainer or other means of removing foreign matter from the water before it enters the
pump. Place the strainer far enough upstream to prevent cavitation at the pump inlet (consult pump manufacturer for recommendations). The use of a strainer can prolong pump life and keep system performance up.
7. A 40-mesh strainer is required in the water line just before the inlet of the evaporator.
This will help prevent foreign material from entering and decreasing the performance of the evaporator.
!
CAUTION
If a separate disconnect is used for the 110V supply to the evaporator heating cable, mark the disconnect clearly so the disconnect is not accidentally shut off during cold seasons. Failure to do so can cause a failure of the evaporator.
8. The brazed plate evaporator has a thermostat and heating cable to prevent freeze-up
down to -20°F (-29°C). The heating cable should be wired to a separate 110V supply circuit. As shipped from the factory, the heating cable is wired to the control circuit. Protect all water piping to the unit from freezing.
9. If the unit is used as a replacement chiller on a previously existing piping system, flush
the system thoroughly before unit installation. Perform regular water analysis and chemical water treatment on the evaporator immediately at equipment start-up.
10. When glycol is added to the water system for freeze protection, the refrigerant suction
pressure will be lower, cooling performance less, and water side pressure drop greater. If the percentage of glycol is high, or if propylene is used instead of ethylene glycol, the added pressure drop and loss of performance could be substantial. Reset the freezestat and low leaving water alarm temperatures. The freezestat is factory set to default at 38°F (3.3°C). Reset the freezestat setting to approximately 4 to 5 degrees F (2.3 to 2.8 degrees C) below the leaving chilled water setpoint temperature. See the section titled “Glycol Solutions” on page 10 for additional information concerning glycol.
11. Perform a preliminary leak check before insulating the piping and filling the system.
12. Include a vapor barrier on the piping insulation to prevent condensation and possible
damage to the building structure.

NOTES:
1. Chilled water piping within the unit enclosure must be insulated in the field.
2. Support piping independently of the unit and install per local codes.
System Volume
It is important to have adequate water volume in the system to provide an opportunity for the chiller to sense a load change, adjust to the change and stabilize. As the expected load change becomes more rapid, a greater water volume is needed. The system water volume is the total amount of water in the evaporator, air handling products and associated piping. If the water volume is too low, operational problems can occur, including rapid compressor cycling, rapid loading and unloading of compressors, erratic refrigerant flow in the chiller, improper motor cooling, shortened equipment life and other undesirable occurrences.
For normal comfort cooling applications, where the cooling load changes relatively slowly, we recommend a minimum system volume of three to four times the flow rate (GPM). For example, if the design chiller flow rate is 120 GPM, we recommend a minimum system volume of 360 to 480 gallons.
Since there are many other factors that can influence performance, systems may successfully operate below these suggestions. However, as the water volume decreases below these suggestions, the possibility of problems increases.
Variable Chilled Water flow
Variable chilled water flow systems are not recommended for this class of equipment due to limited unloading capability.
Flow Switch
Mount a water flow switch in the leaving water line to shut down the unit when water flow is interrupted.
A flow switch is available from McQuay (part number 017503300). It is a “paddle” type switch and adaptable to pipe sizes down to 1 1/4” (32mm) nominal. Certain minimum flow rates are required to close the switch and are listed in Table 2. Install the switch as shown in Figure 5. Connect the normally open contacts of the flow switch in the unit control center at terminals 4 and 5. There is also a set of normally closed contacts on the switch that can be used for an indicator light or an alarm to indicate when a “no-flow”

condition exists. Freeze protect any flow switch that is installed outdoors. Follow installation instructions provided with the flow switch. Calibrate the flow switch to open at one-half of nominal flow rate.
NOTE: Differential pressure switches are not recommended for outdoor installation. They are subject to damage from freezing.

Glycol Solutions
The use of glycol antifreeze solutions will decrease unit capacity and increase the pressure drop through the cooler. See Product Manual Catalog ACZAGZB1 for specific ratings and correction factors.
!
CAUTION
Do not use automotive grade antifreeze. Industrial grade glycols must be used. Automotive antifreeze contains inhibitors that will cause plating on the copper tubes within the chiller evaporator. The type, storage, disposal, and handling of glycol used must be consistent with local codes.
Evaporator Water Flow and Pressure Drop
Evaporator flow rate must fall between the minimum and maximum values shown in the evaporator pressure drop curve, Figure 6. Flow rates outside of these limits result in a chilled water Delta-T outside the operating range of the controller.
Measure the chilled water pressure drop through the evaporator at field-installed pressure taps. It is important not to include the effect of valves or strainers in these readings.
Do not vary the chilled water flow through the evaporator while the compressors are operating.

R-407C Units
AGZ chillers are available with R-407C refrigerant as non-ARI certified units. R-407C is a zeotropic blend of three compounds, and as such exhibits the characteristic of glide. It does not behave as one substance like R-22 does. Glide is the difference (in degrees F) between the beginning and end phase-change process in either the evaporator or condenser. During these processes, different ratios of the refrigerant’s components change phase from the beginning to the end of the process. The following functions, conditions and settings will differ from units charged with R-22.
1. Different physical data and electrical data
2. Polyolester lubricants are used instead of mineral oil.
3. The saturated pressure/temperature relationship
4. Control and alarm settings
5. Charging procedures
1. Lubrication. The units are factory-charged with polyoester (POE) lubricant and one of the
following lubricants must be used if lubricant is to be added to the system:
POEs are very hygroscopic and will quickly absorb moisture if exposed to air. Pump the lubricant into the unit through a closed transfer system. Avoid overcharging the unit.
Copeland Ultra 22 CC Mobil EAL Arctic 22 CC ICI EMKARATE RL RL 32CF
2. Pressure/temperature relationship. See Table 3 on page 13 for the saturated pressure-
temperature chart. Due to refrigerant glide, use the following procedures for superheat and subcooling measurement.
To determine superheat, only vapor must be present at the point of measurement, no liquid. Use the temperature reading, the pressure reading and the Saturated P/T Chart. If the pressure is measured at 78 psig, the chart shows the saturated vapor temperature to be
50.6°F. If the temperature is measured at 60°F, the superheat is 9.4 degrees F.
To determine subcooling, only liquid must be present, no vapor. Use the temperature reading, the pressure reading and the Saturated P/T Chart. If the pressure is measured at 250 psig, the chart shows the saturated liquid temperature to be 108.2°F. If the temperature is measured at 98°F, the subcooling is 10.2 degrees F.
The P/T relationship between R-407C and R-22 is similar enough to allow the use of R-22 expansion valves. The valves may be marked as “R-22’ or “R-22/R-407C”.
3. Control and alarm settings. The software that controls the operation of the unit is factory-
set for operation with R-407C, taking into account that the pressure/temperature relationship differs from R-22. The software functionality is the same for either refrigerant.
4. Charging procedure. The units are factory-charged with R-407C. Use the following
procedure if recharging in the field is necessary:
Whether topping off a charge or replacing the circuit’s entire charge, always remove the refrigerant from the charging vessel as a liquid. Many of the cylinders for the newer refrigerants have a dip tube so that liquid is drawn off when the cylinder is in the upright position. Do not vapor charge out of a cylinder unless the entire contents will be charged into the system.
With the system in a 250-micron or lower vacuum, liquid can be charged into the high side. Initially charge about 80 percent of the system total charge.
12 AGZ 010B through 034B IOMM AGZB1
Start the system and observe operation. Use standard charging procedures (liquid only) to top off the charge.
It may be necessary to add refrigerant through the compressor suction. Because the refrigerant leaving the cylinder must be a liquid, exercise care to avoid damage to the compressor. A sight glass can be connected between the charging hose and the compressor. It can be adjusted to have liquid leave the cylinder and vapor enter the compressor.

Start-up and Shutdown
Pre Start-up
1. The chilled-water system should be flushed and cleaned. Proper water treatment is required
to prevent corrosion and organic growth.
2. Open all electric disconnects and check all electric connections for tightness.
3. Inspect all water piping for flow direction and correct connections at the evaporator.
4. Verify thermostat water temperature sensor is installed in the leaving water line (supply to
building). On all AGZ units the sensor well and sensor are factory mounted.
5. Check compressor oil level. The oil level should be visible in the oil sight glass.
6. Check voltage of the unit power supply and make certain voltage is within ±10% of
nameplate rating. Check unit power supply wiring for proper ampacity and a minimum insulation temperature of 75°C. Check for proper phasing using a phase sequence meter.
7. Verify all mechanical and electrical inspections have been completed according to local
codes.
8. Open control stop switch S1(off). Turn on the main power and control disconnect switches.
This will energize crankcase heaters. Wait at least 24 hours before starting up unit.
9. Open all water flow valves and start the chilled water pump. Check all piping for leaks and
vent the air from the evaporator as well as from the system piping. Flush the evaporator and system piping to obtain clean, noncorrosive water in the evaporator.

Start-up
1. Set temperature controller to the desired chilled water temperature. Set the chilled water
Delta-T.
14 AGZ 010B through 034B IOMM AGZB1
2. Start auxiliary equipment by turning on the following: time clock (if present), ambient
thermostat and/or remote on/off switch, chilled water pump.
3. If the controller calls for cooling, the unit will begin the start-up sequence.
4. After running the unit for a short time, check the oil level in the compressor (1/4 to 1/3
of the glass), rotation of fans, and flashing in refrigerant sight glass.
5. Verify superheat temperature is at the factory setting of 8 to 12 degrees F (4.4 to 6.7
degrees C).
6. After system performance has stabilized, complete the current AGZ Start-Up Form
(obtainable from the local McQuay sales office) to establish inception of warranty benefits. Return the form to McQuay International through your sales representative.
Sequence of Operation
Start-Up
With the control circuit power on, 115V power is applied through the control circuit fuse F1 to the compressor crankcase heaters, the compressor motor protections and the primary of the 24V control circuit transformer. The 24V transformer provides power to the microprocessor controller.
When a remote time clock, manual switch, or the unit controller turns on the chilled water pump, the flow switch closes and satisfies the flow requirement. If the chilled water temperature is above the stage-on temperature, and all equipment protection devices are closed, the unit will start. The controller will operate the unit in response to the leaving chiller water temperature or reset signals that may be present.
Equipment Protection Alarms
The following conditions will shut down the unit and activate the alarm circuit:
No evaporator water flow Low evaporator pressure
High condenser pressure Motor protection system
Phase voltage protection (Optional) Outside ambient temperature
Evaporator freeze protection Sensor failures
The following alarms will limit unit operation:
Condenser pressure stage down, unloads unit at high discharge pressures
Low ambient lockout, shuts off unit at low ambient temperatures
Low evaporator pressure hold, holds stage #1 until pressure rises
Low evaporator pressure unload, shuts off stage #2
Unit Enable Selection
Enables unit operation from local keypad, digital input, or Building Automation System.
Unit Mode Selection
Selects standard cooling, ice, glycol, or test operation mode.
Condenser fan control
Control of condenser fans is provided by the MicroTech II controller. The control steps condenser fans based on discharge pressure.
Shutdown
As the leaving water control is satisfied, it will stage off the lag compressor unloading the unit. The second stage will de-energize the liquid line solenoid valve SV1 and shut off the lead compressor. The compressor crankcase heaters will energize when the compressors shut off, keeping the small amount of refrigerant in the plate heat exchanger from migrating to the compressor. See page 56 for detailed explanation of compressor staging.

Field Wiring
Wiring must comply with all applicable codes and ordinances. Warranty is void if wiring is not in accordance with specifications. Copper wire is required for all power lead terminations at the unit.
AGZ 010A through AGZ 034A units have single point power connection. A single field supplied fused disconnect is required. The control transformer is factory mounted.
If the evaporator heater is on a separate disconnect switch from the main unit power supply, the unit may be shut down without defeating the freeze protection provided by the evaporator heater.
R-22 data is located on pages 21 through 22, R-407C data in on pages 23 through 24.

Notes for Electrical Data
1. Unit wire size ampacity (MCA) is equal to 125% of the largest compressor-motor RLA
plus 100% of RLA of all other loads in the circuit.
2. The control transformer is furnished and no separate 115V power supply is required.
3. If a separate 115V power supply is used for the control circuit, then the wire sizing
amps is 10 amps for all unit sizes.
4. Recommended power lead wire sizes for three conductors per conduit are based on
100% conductor ampacity in accordance with NEC. Voltage drop has not been included. Therefore, it is recommended that power leads be kept short. All terminal block connections must be made with copper wire.
5. “Recommended Fuse Sizes” are selected at approximately 175% of the largest
compressor RLA, plus 100% of the RLA of all other loads in the circuit.
6. “Maximum Fuse or breaker size” is selected at approximately 225% of the largest
compressor RLA, plus 100% of all other loads in the circuit.
7. The recommended power lead wire sizes are based on an ambient temperature of 86°F
(30°C). Ampacity correction factors must be applied for other ambient temperatures. Refer to the National Electrical Code Handbook.
8. Units must be electrically grounded according to national and local electrical codes.
Voltage Limitations:
Within ± 10 percent of nameplate rating
Important: Voltage unbalance not to exceed 2% with a resultant current unbalance of 6 to 10 times the voltage unbalance per NEMA MG-1, 1998 Standard. This is an important restriction that must be adhered to.
Notes for “Compressor and Condenser Fan Amp Draw”:
1. Compressor RLA values are for wiring sizing purposes only but may not reflect normal
operating current draw at rated capacity.
2. Fan motor FLA values are approximate fan motor amp values at rated voltage.
Notes for “Field Wiring Data”
1. Requires a single disconnect to supply electrical power to the unit. This power supply
must either be fused or use a circuit breaker.
2. All field wiring to unit power block or optional non-fused disconnect switch must be
copper.
3. All field wire size values given in table apply to 75°C rated wire per NEC.

System Maintenance
General
On initial start-up and periodically during operation, it will be necessary to perform certain routine service checks. Among these are taking electric leg readings. Some readings are readily available on the MicroTech II controller’s display.
Lubrication
No routine lubrication is required on the AGZ units. The fan motor bearings are of the permanently lubricated type and require no lubrication.
Electrical Terminals
Electric shock hazard. Disconnect and tag out all sources of power to the unit before continuing with following service or severe personal injury or death can result.
Normal heating and cooling of the wire will cause terminals to loosen. Retighten all power electrical terminals every six months.
Condensers
Condensers are air-cooled and constructed with 3/8” (9.5mm) O.D. internally finned copper tubes bonded in a staggered pattern into slit aluminum fins. No maintenance is ordinarily required except the occasional removal of dirt and debris from the outside surface of the fins. Use locally purchased foaming condenser coil cleaners for periodic cleaning of the coil. Condenser cleaners may contain harmful chemicals, be careful when using cleaners. Care should be taken not to damage the fins during cleaning. All chemical cleaners should be thoroughly rinsed from the coils.
!
WARNING
Refrigerant Sight glass
Observe the refrigerant sight glass monthly. A clear glass of liquid indicates adequate sub­cooled refrigerant charge in the system to ensure proper feed through the expansion valve. Bubbling refrigerant in the sight glass indicates the system is short of refrigerant charge. Sub-cooling should be verified to prevent overcharging. Refrigerant gas flashing in the sight glass could also indicate an excessive pressure drop in the line, possibly due to a clogged filter-drier or a restriction elsewhere in the system. The sight glass indicates what moisture condition corresponds to a given element color. If the sight glass does not indicate a dry condition after about 12 hours of operation, the refrigerant or oil should be tested for moisture.

Overview
The MicroTech II controller’s state-of-the-art design will not only permit the chiller to run more efficiently, but will also simplify troubleshooting if a system failure occurs. Every MicroTech II controller is programmed and tested prior to shipment to contribute to a trouble-free start-up.
Release Version
This manual covers Software Release AGZ SU0102D
Operator-friendly
The MicroTech II controller’s menu structure is separated into three distinct categories, which provide the operator or service technician with a full description of current unit status, control parameters, and alarms. Security protection prevents unauthorized changing of the setpoints and control parameters.
The MicroTech II controller continuously performs self-diagnostic checks, monitoring system temperatures, pressures and protection devices, and will automatically shut down a compressor or the entire unit should a fault occur. The cause of the shutdown will be retained in memory and can be easily displayed in plain English for operator review. The MicroTech II chiller controller will also retain and display the time the fault occurred. In addition to displaying alarm diagnostics, the MicroTech II chiller controller also provides the operator with a warning of limit (pre-alarm) conditions.
Staging
The two scroll compressors are staged on and off as a function of leaving chilled water temperature. Lead/lag is automatic and switched every ten starts.
General Description
Compressor Motor Protection
The solid-state compressor motor protector module incorporates a 2-minute “time-off” relay utilizing the bleed-down capacitor principle. Any time the protection system opens or power to the module is interrupted, the 2-minute “time-off” delay is triggered and the module will not reset for two minutes. Once the 2-minute period has passed the motor protector contacts M1 and M2 reset, provided the protection system is satisfied and power is applied to the module.
Note: If the power circuit is broken once the 2-minute period is passed, the pilot circuit will reset without delay when power is reapplied.
AGZ 010: The model AGZ 010 compressor has internal line breakage with automatic reset.
FanTrol Head Pressure Control
FanTrol is the standard method of head pressure control that automatically cycles the condenser fan motors in response to condenser pressure. This function is controlled by the microprocessor, maintains head pressure and allows the unit to run at low ambient air temperatures down to 35°F (1.7°C). Fans are staged as follows:
Table 17, Fan Staging Pressures
Fan Two-Fan Unit Three-Fan Unit

Setpoint Security
All setpoints are protected by using passwords. Two four-digit passwords provide OPERATOR and/or MANAGER levels of access to changeable parameters. Once a password has been entered, it remains valid for 15 minutes after the last key-press on the unit controller.
After a valid password has been entered, setpoints may be changed. If the operator attempts to edit a setpoint on a controller while the correct password is not active, no action will be taken.
Passwords can be entered using the ENTER PASSWORD screen which is the last screen in the SET UNIT SPs column.
The password is entered by pressing the ENTER key, scrolling to the correct value with the UP and DOWN arrow keys, and pressing ENTER again. The entered password is not shown after the enter key is pressed. Once the correct password has been entered, the PASSWORD screen indicates which password is active (operator or manager). If the wrong password is entered, there is no level of access so the active password displays “none”. Entering an incorrect password while a password is active will render that password inactive.
Equipment Protection Alarms
Equipment protection alarms execute rapid compressor shutdown (no pumpdown cycle), triggers the alarm output, lights the red alarm light on the controller left arrow button and registers it in the alarm log.
The following table identifies each equipment protection alarm, gives the condition that causes the alarm to occur, and states the action taken because of the alarm. Otherwise, the alarm is manually reset, requiring the operator to clear the alarm.

Control Functions and Definitions
Control Band
Control Band = Evap delta setpoint * 0.6
Upper and Lower Control Band
The control band is normally centered around the active LWT setpoint. If the chiller is not set up to use glycol, then the control band will be shifted up relative to the LWT setpoint to keep the lower end of the control band at least at 39°F. If the band doesn’t need to be shifted to achieve this, it will remain centered on the active LWT setpoint.
Shutoff Stage #2
Shut down unit N/A
Hold @ Stage 1 Shutoff Stage 2
Condenser Press drops below (SP – 100psi)
Evap Press rises above (SP + 8psi) Evap Press rises above (SP + 10 psi)
In the staging logic, an upper and lower control band are used. The lower control band is calculated as follows:
IF Active LWT Setpoint – 39 < 0.5 * Control Band THEN
Lower Control Band = Active LWT Setpoint – 39
ELSE Lower Control Band = 0.5 * Control Band
The upper control band is then Control Band – Lower Control Band
Leaving Water Reset
The leaving water reset input uses a 4-20mA signal to reset the leaving water setpoint to a higher value. The adjustment varies linearly from 0 to 10°F, with a reset of 0 for a 4mA signal and a reset of 10 for a 20mA signal.
Active LWT Setpoint
The active LWT setpoint represents the current control setpoint based on unit mode and reset. If unit mode is ice, then the active setpoint is equal to the ice setpoint. If the unit mode is cool, the active setpoint is the cool setpoint plus the leaving water reset value.
LWT Error
LWT error compares the actual LWT to the active LWT setpoint. The equation is:
LWT error = LWT – active LWT setpoint
LWT Slope
LWT slope is calculated such that the slope represents a time frame of one minute.
IOMM AGZB1 AGZ 010B through 034B 39
Every 12 seconds, the current LWT is subtracted from the value 12 seconds back. This value is added to a buffer containing values calculated at the last five intervals. The final result is a slope value that is an average over the past 60 seconds.
Pulldown Rate
The slope value calculated above will be a negative value as the water temperature is dropping. For use in some control functions, the negative slope is converted to a positive value by multiplying by –1.
Refrigerant Saturated Temperature
Methods for calculating saturated refrigerant temperature differ with each refrigerant.
R22 Saturated Temperature
Evaporator saturated temperature and condenser saturated temperature are calculated from the pressures for each circuit. The pressure will be fitted to a curve made up of 13 straight line segments. The points used to define these segments are as follows.
Pressure (PSI) Temperature (oF)
24.0 0
34.7 12.0
47.6 24.0
62.8 36.0
80.8 48.0
101.6 60.0
126.2 72.0
153.8 84.0
185.2 96.0
220.6 108.0
260.5 120.0
305.2 132.0
355.1 144.0
430.4 160.0
R407C Saturated Temperature
Evaporator dew point and condenser midpoint are calculated using 32-bit math. The equation is as follows:
If Pressure < 120 psi Then
Saturation = [Pressure x 145/105] – [(Pressure2)/2000] – 250
If Pressure >= 120 psi Then
Saturation = [Pressure x 46/94] – [Pressure2/25000] + 145
Evaporator Approach
The evaporator approach is calculated for each circuit. The equation is as follows:
Evaporator Approach = LWT – Evaporator Saturated Temperature
Suction Superheat
Suction superheat is calculated for each circuit using the following equation:
Suction superheat = Suction Temperature – Evaporator Saturated Temperature
40 AGZ 010B through 034B IOMM AGZB1
Pumpdown Pressure
The pressure to which a circuit will pumpdown is based on the Low Evaporator Pressure Unload setpoint. The equation is as follows:
Pumpdown pressure = Low evap pressure unload – 15 psi , with the calculated value limited to a minimum of 10 psi.
Unit Enable
Enabling and disabling the chiller is controlled by the Unit Enable Setpoint with options of OFF and ON. This setpoint can be altered by the Unit OFF input, Remote input, keypad entry, and BAS request. The Control Source Setpoint determines which sources can change the Unit Enable Setpoint with options of SWITCHES, KEYPAD or NETWORK.
Changing the Unit Enable Setpoint can be accomplished according to the following table. NOTE: An “x” indicates that the value is ignored.
Unit Off
Input
OFF x x x x OFF
x SWITCHES OFF x x OFF ON SWITCHES ON x x ON ON KEYPAD x OFF x OFF ON KEYPAD x ON x ON ON NETWORK x x OFF OFF ON NETWORK OFF x x OFF ON NETWORK ON x ON ON
Unit Mode
The overall operating mode of the chiller is set by the Unit Mode Setpoint with options of COOL, COOL w/Glycol, ICE w/Glycol, and TEST. This setpoint can be altered by the keypad, BAS, and Mode input. Changes to the Unit Mode Setpoint are controlled by two additional setpoints.
Available Modes Setpoint: Determines the operational modes available at any time
with options of COOL, COOL w/Glycol, COOL/ICE w/Glycol, ICE w/Glycol and
TEST.
Control Source Setpoint: Determines the source that can change the Unit Mode
Setpoint with options of KEYPAD, NETWORK, or SWITCHES.
When the Control source is set to KEYPAD, the Unit Mode stays at its previous setting until changed by the operator. When the Control source is set to BAS, the most recent BAS mode request goes into effect even if it changed while the Control source was set to KEYPAD or DIGITAL INPUTS.
Changing the Unit Mode Setpoint can be accomplished according to the following table. NOTE: An “x” indicates that the value is ignored.

Unit Test Mode
The unit test mode allows manual testing of controller outputs. Entering this mode requires the following conditions.
Unit Switch = OFF
Manager password active.
Available Unit Mode setpoint = TEST
A test menu can then be selected to allow activation of the outputs. It is possible to switch each digital output ON or OFF and set the analog outputs to any value.
Power Up Start Delay
After powering up the unit, the motor protectors may seem to not work properly for up to 150 seconds. After the control is powered up, no compressor can start for 150 seconds. In addition, the motor protect inputs are ignored during this time so as to avoid tripping a false alarm.
Ice Mode Start Delay
An adjustable start to start ice delay timer will limit the frequency with which the chiller may start in Ice mode. The timer starts when the first compressor starts while the unit is in ice mode. While this timer is active, the chiller cannot restart in Ice mode. The time delay is user adjustable.
The ice delay timer may be manually cleared to force a restart in ice mode. A setpoint specifically for clearing the ice mode delay is available. In addition, cycling the power to the controller will clear the ice delay timer.
Unit State
The Unit shall always be in one of three states. These states are Off, Auto, and Pumpdown. Transitions between these states are shown in the following diagram (Figure 13, Unit State Diagram).
T1: Off to Auto
All of the following must be true:

Condenser Fans
Condenser fans are staged up and down based on the fan stage setpoint. These setpoints define pressures at which fans will start or stop.
Fan 1 will start with the first compressor when the ambient temperature is greater than 75°F. Below 75°F, this fan starts when the condenser pressure gets up to the Stage #1 On setpoint. Fan 2 will start when the condenser pressure gets up to the Stage #2 On setpoint, and fan 3 will start when the condenser pressure gets up to the Stage #3 On setpoint.
Fan 3 will stop when the condenser pressure drops to the Stage #3 Off setpoint, and Fan 2 will stop when the condenser pressure drops to the Stage #2 Off setpoint. Fan 1 will stop when the pressure drops down to the Stage #1 Off setpoint.
Low OAT Start
In order to avoid low pressure alarms at startup, low OAT start logic allows for running at low pressures for a longer time than normal as well as multiple start attempts.
A low OAT start is initiated if the condenser saturated temperature is less than 85°F when the compressor starts. Once this happens, the circuit is in this low OAT start state for a time equal to the low OAT start timer setpoint. During this time, the freezestat logic and the low pressure events are disabled. The absolute limit of 5 psi is still enforced.
At the end of the low OAT start, the evaporator pressure is checked. If the pressure is greater than, or equal to, the low evaporator pressure unload setpoint, the start is considered successful. If the pressure is less than the unload setpoint, the start is not successful and the compressor will stop. Three start attempts are allowed before tripping on the restart alarm. So if on the third attempt, the start is not successful, the restart alarm is triggered.
The restart counter is be reset when either a start is successful or the circuit is off on an alarm.
Circuit Capacity Overrides
The following conditions override the automatic capacity control when the chiller is in Cool Mode only. These overrides keep the unit from entering a condition in which it is not designed to run.
Low Evaporator Pressure
If the evaporator pressure drops below the Low Evaporator Pressure Hold setpoint, the Low Evaporator Pressure Inhibit event is triggered. This can occur with either one or two compressors running. When triggered, the second compressor will not be allowed to start if only one is currently running. If both compressors are already running, no action is taken.
44 AGZ 010B through 034B IOMM AGZB1
If the evaporator pressure drops below the Low Evaporator Pressure Unload setpoint, the Low Evaporator Pressure Unload event is triggered. This can only occur when both compressors are running. When triggered, one compressor is shut off.
These events are logged to an event log when they occur. Both remain active until the evaporator pressure rises 5 psi above the hold setpoint or both compressors are off.
High Condenser Pressure
If the discharge pressure rises above the High Condenser Pressure Unload setpoint and both compressors are running, the High Condenser Pressure Unload event is triggered. One compressor will be shut off when this occurs.
This event will also be logged to an event log when it occurs. It will remain active until the condenser pressure drops 100 psi below the unload setpoint. While active, the second compressor cannot turn back on.
Maximum LWT Rate
The maximum rate at which the leaving water temperature can drop is limited by the Maximum Pulldown Rate setpoint when the unit mode is Cool. If the rate exceeds this setpoint, no more compressors can be started until the Pulldown Rate is less than the setpoint. Running compressors will not be stopped as a result of exceeding the maximum pulldown rate.
Low Ambient Lockout
If the OAT drops below the low ambient lockout setpoint, then the unit will do a normal stop. Once the lockout has been triggered, no compressors will start until the OAT rises to the lockout setpoint plus 5°F.
Compressor Control
Compressor Available
A compressor is available to start when the following are true:
Unit state = auto
Evap state = run
Low OAT lockout is not active
Power up start delay is expired
No limit events active
No cycle timers active for the compressor
Compressor enable setpoint = On
Compressor Start/Stop Timing
This section determines when to start or stop a compressor. There are two separate functions used, one for staging up and one for staging down.
Stage Up Now
The Stage Up Now flag is set based on the following tests:
If Unit mode = Cool, AND no compressors are running, AND LWT error > Start delta + Upper Control Band, AND Motor Protect Timer is expired, AND Stage up timer is expired, THEN
Stage Up Now = True
IOMM AGZB1 AGZ 010B through 034B 45
ALSO
If Unit Mode = Cool, AND At least one compressor is running, AND LWT error > Upper Control Band, AND Pulldown rate <= Max pulldown rate, AND Compressors running < unit capacity limit, AND Stage up timer is expired, THEN
Stage Up Now = True
ALSO
If Unit Mode = Ice, AND no compressors are running, AND LWT error > Start delta + Upper Control Band, AND Motor Protect Timer is expired, AND Ice Delay Timer is expired, AND Stage up timer is expired, THEN
Stage Up Now = True
ALSO
If Unit Mode = Ice, AND LWT error > 0, AND At least one compressor running, THEN
Stage Up Now = True
Stage Down Now
The Stage Down Now flag is set based on the following tests:
If Unit Mode = Cool, AND LWT error < -(Lower Control band), AND More than one compressor is running, AND Stage down timer is expired, THEN
Stage Down Now = True
ALSO
If Unit Mode = Cool, AND LWT error < -(Lower Control band) - stop delta, AND One compressor is running, AND Stage down timer is expired THEN
Stage Down Now = True
ALSO
If Unit Mode = Cool, AND Number of compressors running > Demand limit, AND Stage down timer expired, THEN
Stage Down Now = True
ALSO
If Unit Mode = Ice, AND LWT error < 0, THEN
Stage Down Now = True
Compressor Sequencing
Compressor staging is based primarily on compressor run-hours and starts. Compressors that have less starts will normally start before those with more starts. Compressors that have more run-hours will normally shut off before those with less run-hours.
46 AGZ 010B through 034B IOMM AGZB1
In the event of a tie on number of starts, the lower numbered compressor will start first. In the event of a tie on run-hours, the lower numbered compressor will shut off first. Run hours are compared in terms of tens of hours.
Next On = 1 if compressor 1 starts <= compressor 2 starts or compressor 2 not available, and compressor 1 available
Next On = 2 if compressor 1 starts > compressor 2 starts or compressor 1 not available, and compressor 2 available
Next Off = 1 if compressor 1 run hours > compressor 2 run hours
Next Off = 2 if compressor 1 run hours <= compressor 2 run hours
Compressor State
A compressor will start when all of the following conditions exist:
The compressor is “next on”
Stage Up Now is set
The compressor is available to start
A compressor will stop when any of the following conditions exist:
Unit state = Off
Low Ambient start attempt failed
Stage Down Now is set, both compressors are running, and the compressor is “next off”
Pumpdown is complete
Normal Shutdown
If a condition arises that requires the unit to shut down, but it is not an emergency situation, then a pumpdown will be performed. A normal shutdown will be initiated when any of the following occur:
Unit State = Pumpdown
Circuit Switch = Off
Low Ambient Lockout
A normal stage down occurs, and only one compressor is running
Unit mode = Ice AND the ice setpoint is reached
Pumpdown Procedure
If both compressors are running, shut off the appropriate compressor based on
sequencing logic
With one compressor left running, turn off hot gas output and liquid line output
Keep running until evaporator pressure reaches the pumpdown pressure, then stop
compressor
If evaporator pressure does not reach pumpdown pressure within two minutes, stop
compressor and log pumpdown failure alarm
Rapid Shutdown
A situation may arise that requires the unit to shut down immediately, without doing a pumpdown. This rapid shutdown will be triggered by any of the following:
Unit State = Off
Stop Alarm
All compressor and liquid line outputs are turned off immediately for a rapid shutdown.
IOMM AGZB1 AGZ 010B through 034B 47
Liquid Line Solenoid
ALARM
Red Alarm Light
The liquid line output shall be on any time a compressor is running and the unit is not performing a pumpdown. This output should be off at all other times.

Note that each ARROW key has a pathway to a line in the display. Pressing an ARROW key will activate the associated line when in the MENU mode.
Getting Started
There are two basic procedures to learn in order to utilize the MicroTech II controller:
1. Navigating through the menu matrix to reach a desired menu screen and knowing where
a particular screen is located.
2. Knowing what is contained in a menu screen and how to read that information or how
to change a setpoint contained in the menu screen.
Navigating Through the Menus
The menus are arranged in a matrix of screens across a top horizontal row. Some of these top-level screens have sub-screens located under them. The general content of each screen and its location in the matrix are shown in Figure 17. A detailed description of each menu begins on page 51.
There are two ways to navigate through the menu matrix to reach a desired menu screen.
One is to scroll through the matrix from one screen to another using the four ARROW keys.
The other way is to use shortcuts to work through the matrix hierarchy. From any menu screen, pressing the MENU key will take you to the top level of the hierarchy. The display will show ALARM, VIEW, and SET as shown in Figure 15. This corresponds to the second row of screens on Figure 17. One of these groups of screens can then be selected by pressing the key connected to it via the pathway shown in Figure 15.
For example, selecting ALARM will go the next row of menus under ALARM (ALARM LOG or ACTIVE ALARM). Selecting VIEW will go the next level of screens under VIEW (VIEW UNIT STATUS or VIEW UNIT TEMP). Selecting SET will go to a series of screens for looking at and changing setpoints.
48 AGZ 010B through 034B IOMM AGZB1
MENU Key
The MENU key is used to switch between the shortcut method (known as the MENU mode and as shown in Figure 15) and scrolling method (known as the SCROLL mode). The MENU mode is the shortcut to specific groups of menus used for checking ALARMS, for VIEWING information, or to SET setpoint values. The SCROLL mode allows the user to move about the matrix (from one menu to another, one at a time) by using the four ARROW keys. A typical menu screen is shown in Figure 16.
Pressing the MENU key from any menu screen will automatically return you to the MENU mode as shown in Figure 15.

Various menus are shown in the controller display. Each menu screen shows specific information; in some cases menus are used only to view the status of the unit, in some cases they are used for checking and clearing alarms, and in some case they are used to set setpoint values.
The menus are arranged in a matrix of screens across a top horizontal row. Some of these top-level screens have sub-screens located under them. The general content of each screen and its location in the matrix are shown in Figure 17. A detailed description of each menu begins on page 51.
The ARROW keys on the controller are used to navigate through the menus. The keys are also used to change numerical setpoint values contained in certain menus.

LEFT key Default, changes a value to the factory-set default value. RIGHT key Cancel, cancels any change made to a value and returns to the original setting. UP key Increment, increases the value of the setting DOWN key Decrement, decreases the value of a setting.
These four edit functions are indicated by one-character abbreviation on the right side of the display (this mode is entered by pressing the ENTER key).
Most menus containing setpoint values have several different setpoints shown on one menu. When in a setpoint menu, the ENTER key is used to proceed from the top line to the second line and on downward. The cursor will blink at the entry point for making a change. The ARROW keys (now in the edit mode) are used to change the setpoint as described above.
IOMM AGZB1 AGZ 010B through 034B 49
When the change has been made, press the ENTER key to enter it. No setting is changed until the ENTER key is pressed.
For example, to change the chilled water setpoint:
1. Press MENU key to go to the MENU mode (see Figure 15).
2. Press SET (the UP Key) to go to the setpoint menus.
3. Press UNIT SPs (the Right key) to go to setpoints associated with unit operation.
4. Press the DOWN key to scroll down through the setpoint menus to the third menu which
contains Evap LWT=XX.X°F.
5. Press the ENTER key to move the cursor down from the top line to the second line in
order to make the change.
6. Use the ARROW keys (now in the edit mode as shown above) to change the setting.
7. When the desired value is achieved, press ENTER to enter it. The cursor will
automatically move down.
At this point, the following actions can be taken:
1. Change another setpoint in this menu by scrolling to it with the ENTER key
2. Using the ENTER key, scroll to the first line in the menu. From there the ARROW keys
can be used to scroll to different menus.

Changing setpoints; in general, setpoints are changed as follows:
1. Select the desired menu by scrolling through SET menus with the UP and DOWN
ARROWS.
2. When the desired menu is selected, select the desired entry by moving between lines
using the ENTER key.
3. If a numerical value is being changed, use the INCREMENT key (UP ARROW) to
increase or the DECREMENT key (DOWN ARROW) to decrease the value of the setpoint.
If a word type setpoint (for example, YES or NO) is to be selected, the choices are loaded into the menu and selected by scrolling through the available setpoint options using the UP ARROW key.
4. Enter the desired value or word into the controller by pressing the SET key.
SET UNIT SETPOINTS (SP)
SET UNIT SPs (1) Unit Enable=OFF Mode=COOL Source=KEYPAD
Unit Enable is an external signal or a keypad setting that keeps the unit off when the setting is OFF and allows it to run if there is a call for cooling. The source for the signal is selected in the 4th line and can be:
1. KEYPAD, in which case the selection is made in line 2 and would be normally selected
as ON. This is the normal setting when no external signals are controlling the unit.
2. SWITCHES, in which an external switch is wired across terminals #25 and #35. (See
wiring diagram page 27).
3. NETWORK, used with BAS signal, which is wired to the three communication ports.
Unit Mode settings can be
1. COOL, normal setting used with chilled water air-condition applications.
2. COOL w/GLYCOL, used with low temperature, glycol applications. It allows a lower
LWT setpoint to be used.
3. ICE w/GLYCOL, used with ice storage systems, allows changing from chilled glycol
operation to lower temperature ICE operation. In ICE, the unit runs at full load until the ICE setpoint is reached, at which time the unit shuts off. A three-position switch wired to terminals #28 and #38 initiates the change from glycol cooling to making ice. (See wiring diagram on page 27.)

Staging
StartDelta is the number of degrees above the temperature setting that determines when the lead compressor starts. Compressor start and stop is determined by the control band and
StartDelta settings. The control band is automatically set of 60% of the EvapDeltaT (chilled water temperature in minus chilled water temperature out) selected in menu 3 above. The staging routine has been changes in this software version compared to previous versions. See page 39 for more details and an example.
For a warm start-up the lead compressor will start at any temperature above the start temperature. The lag will start after the start interval has timed out. The chilled water temperature will begin to be pulled down. At shut down temperature, the lag compressor will shut off. If the temperature climbs above that temperature within the StageDownTimer setting (default at 30 sec.), the lead compressor will remain on. This would be normal operation. If for some reason the temperature does not rise, the lead compressor will also shut off.

The LowEvPrHold and LowEvPrUnld have the same default value of 59 psi. If two compressors are running, the LowEvPrUnld is in effect and the lag compressor will be shut off to unload the unit. If one compressor is running, the LowEvPrHold is in effect and the lag compressor is prevented from starting, thereby holding the unit capacity.
The last action to take place is the shutoff of all compressors running when the LowEvPrStop setting is reached (default is 58 psi).
SET ALARM LMTS (2) Evap Freeze= XX.X°°°°F
EvapFlowProof=XXXsec
Evap Freeze (the unit freeze protection shutdown) is actually a stop alarm and shuts off the unit when the LWT reaches 36°F. It is cleared by going to the CLEAR ALARM menu in the ACTIVE ALARM hierarchy.
EvapFlowProof is the flow switch interlock. Closing the flow switch and therefor proving the existence of chilled water flow resets this trip.
SET ALARM LMTS (3) High Cond Pressure
Unload = XXXpsi
Stop = XXXpsi
HighCondPr (the unit high-discharge-pressure shutdown) is a stop alarm that shuts off the unit when the discharge pressure reaches the setting. The default setting is 380 psi. The Stop is a shutdown alarm that stops the unit when the discharge pressure reaches the setpoint.
SET ALARM LMTS (4) PhaseVoltage=YES/NO LowOATLockTmr=XXXsec
LowAmbientLock prevents unit operation below the setting. If the unit is equipped with the standard FanTrol pressure-activated control, the available range is 35°F to 60°F with a default of 35°F. With the optional SpeedTrol variable speed control, the range becomes –2°F to 60°F with default of 0°F. Input to line 3 of the next screen, SET FANS SP (1), informs the controller which type of control is installed and which range of setting to allow.

Service
Thermostatic Expansion Valve
!
WARNING
Disconnect and tag out all power sources to the unit before doing any service inside the unit. Failure to do so can cause severe personal injury or death.
!
CAUTION
Service on this equipment is to be performed by qualified service personnel with special regard to regulations concerning release of refrigerant to the atmosphere.
Note: Repeated tripping of equipment protection controls must be investigated and corrected.
The expansion valve is responsible for allowing the proper amount of refrigerant to enter the evaporator regardless of cooling load. It does this by maintaining a constant superheat. (Superheat is the difference between refrigerant temperature as it leaves the evaporator and the saturation temperature corresponding to the evaporator pressure.) Typically, superheat should run in the range of 8°F to 12°F (4.4°C to 6.6°C).
The superheat setting can be adjusted by removing the cap at the bottom of the valve to expose the adjustment screw. Turn the screw clockwise (when viewed from the adjustment screw end) to increase the superheat setting and counterclockwise to reduce superheat. Allow time for system rebalance after each superheat adjustment.
The expansion valve, like the solenoid valve, should not normally require replacement, but if it does the unit must be pumped down by following the steps involved when changing a filter-drier.
If the problem can be traced to the power element only, unscrew the element from the valve body without removing the valve, but only after pumping the unit down.
Filter-Driers
If the pressure drop across the filter-drier is in the 6 to 10 psi range, it should be monitored and changed when the pressure drop reaches 10 psi. To change the liquid line sealed filter, de-energize the unit and pump out the refrigerant. After changing the filter-drier, check for leaks before recharging and returning unit to operation.
Liquid Line Solenoid
The liquid line solenoid valve does not normally require any maintenance. It may, however, require replacement of the solenoid coil. The solenoid coil may be removed from the valve body without opening the system by disconnecting power to the unit. The coil can then be removed from the valve body by simply removing the nut or snap ring located at the top of the coil.
62 AGZ 010B through 034B IOMM AGZB1
Optional Controls
SpeedTrol Head Pressure Control
The SpeedTrol method of head pressure control operates in conjunction with FanTrol by modulating the motor speed on system #1 fan in response to condenser pressure. By reducing the speed of the last fan as the condensing pressure falls, the unit can operate to 0°F (-18°C) ambient air temperature.
The SpeedTrol fan motor is a single-phase, 230/460 volt, thermally protected motor specially designed for variable speed operation. The solid-state speed control is mounted in the unit control panel and is connected to a Schrader fitting on the liquid line. The control is factory-set to start modulating fan speed at 230 psig, and it will maintain a minimum condensing pressure of 170 to 180 psig. Minimum starting voltage for SpeedTrol motors is 120 volts.
A low ambient timer function is included in the microprocessor. When the solenoid valve and lead compressor are energized by the controller, the low pressure cutout control is bypassed and the compressor is allowed to start with the low pressure control open.
After about 2-3/4 minutes, the time delay will open and the low pressure cutout function is again operable. If the system has not built up enough evaporator pressure to close the low pressure setting, the compressor will stop.
Due to the vertical condenser design, it is recommended that the unit be oriented so that prevailing winds blow parallel to the unit length, thus minimizing effects on minimum ambient operation. If it is not practical to orient the unit in this manner, a wind deflector should be constructed.
Hot Gas Bypass
Hot gas bypass is a system for maintaining evaporator pressure at or above a minimum value. The purpose for doing this is to keep the velocity of the refrigerant as it passes through the evaporator high enough for proper oil return to the compressor when cooling load conditions are light. It also maintains continuous operation of the chiller at light load conditions.
The solenoid valve should be wired to open whenever the liquid line solenoid valve is energized. This can be accomplished by wiring the hot gas solenoid (SV5) in parallel with the liquid line solenoid at terminals 14 and 16. The pressure-regulating valve is factory-set to begin opening at 58 PSIG (32°F for R-22) when the air-charged bulb is in an 80°F ambient temperature. The bulb can be mounted anywhere as long as it senses a fairly constant temperature at various load conditions. The compressor suction line is one such mounting location. It is generally in the 50°F to 60°F range.
Figure 19 indicates that when the bulb is sensing 50°F to 60°F temperatures, the valve will begin opening at 54 PSIG. This setting can be changed as indicated above, by changing the pressure setting, remove the cap on the bulb and turn the adjustment screw clockwise. To lower the setting, turn the screw counterclockwise. Do not force the adjustment beyond the range it is designed for, as this will damage the adjustment assembly.
The regulating valve opening point can be determined by slowly reducing the system load (or increasing the required chiller water temperature setting indicated on the unit thermostat), while observing the suction pressure. When the bypass valve starts to open, the refrigerant line on the evaporator side of the valve will begin to feel warm to the touch.

WARNING
The hot gas line may become hot enough to cause injury in a very short time. Avoid contact during valve checkout.
On installations where the condensing unit is remote from the evaporator, it is recommended that the hot gas bypass valve be mounted near the condensing unit to minimize the amount of refrigerant that will condense in the hot gas line during periods when hot gas bypass is not required.

MODEL AGZ 029 – 034, Post 2004 Production
Model AGZ 029 and 034 built after January 2004 may have a hot gas bypass valve as shown as shown in Figure 20.
64 AGZ 010B through 034B IOMM AGZB1
The valve is adjusted using the adjusting screw show in the drawing. The range is 0 to 100 psi with about 16 psi change for one turn of the screw. Turning clockwise will increase the valve setting.
The load must be varied to properly set these valves. The load should be decreased so that the suction pressure decreases. The valve is then adjusted to maintain the correct suction pressure, which is the normal pressure at full load. The load should then be increases above the valve setting so that it closes. Operation can be checked by again reducing the load and noting when the valve opens (a hissing sound and/or pressure rise at the valve outlet indicates that the valve has opened).
